[Keratotic pseudoepitheliomatous and micaceous balanitis].

OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical and histopathological manifestations of a case of pseudoepitheliomatous, keratotic and micaceous balanitis and review the literature on this rare condition. METHODS: A case of pseudoepitheliomatous, keratotic and micaceous balanitis in a 63-year-old man is presented. The lesion appeared a few months after undergoing circumcision due to phimosis and recurrent inflammatory balanitis. RESULTS: The lesion relapsed after topical treatment with 5-FU, cryotherapy and shaving-biopsy plus electrocoagulation. It was finally diagnosed as epidermoid carcinoma and surgically excised. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical and histopathological features, course and relationship between micaceous balanitis and carcinoma of the penis are reviewed.

[Small cell carcinoma of the bladder. Report of a new case].

Contribution of a case report of vesical small cell carcinoma (SCC) seen at our Centre and managed with partial cystectomy and systemic chemotherapy (CMT) with M-VAC. SCC is an uncommon neoplasia of the bladder usually associated with an aggressive behaviour. The effectiveness of radical surgery has not been demonstrated, so a conservative treatment was chosen which has allowed to preserve a high quality of life until now, 36 months after diagnosis. The studies of local and distant relapses show no signs of residual disease.

[Polycystic endodermal heterotopy of the atrioventricular node].

We present the two first Spanish cases about the endodermic heterotopia of the atrioventricular node. This is an infrequent and probably congenital lesion, with a not well known histogenesis and associated with heart blocks and sudden death, which affects women in most cases. The first observation attaches a 55 years-old woman with an acute leukemia who died during the first chemotherapy treatment. The second observation affects a 25 years-old woman, with previous heart blocks, who died suddenly. A complete post-mortem study was done in both cases (including cardiac conduction system) with conventional histopathological study and extensive immunohistochemical panel. Ultrastructural study of first case was done. In both cases a multicystic and tubular lesion was found in the atrioventricular node region. It was lined by two or more cubic and polyhedral cell layers. In the cystic lumina an eosinophilic material, which corresponded to acid and neutral mucosubstances was found. The maximal lesion's diameter were: 0.9 and 1.3 cm, respectively. Immunohistochemically it was detected in both cases strong positivity for cytoqueratines, EMA, CEA and focally for chromogranin A and calcitonin. The immunohistochemical results in both cases express and endodermic differentiation (with neuroendocrine fenotipe).
